My G VS. Stock z-- Answered

Almost dead even... I tip toe on a stock 350z...

But truely its a drivers race... if either one of us does something remotely wrong we pay the price big time.


If you didn't see the thread before I have

Stillen intake
Kintex v4 plenum
Ztube
Borla Headers
Highflowcats
Injen Exhaust (yeah its prolly slowin me down, but i love how it sounds k?)

The AT is what is really killing me =( But I'm not complaining-- having the auto option is really nice, since its my daily driver and im often to tired to drive lol.

Sorry Add Kintex V4 plenum to that list...

Car was a gift-- I'm not going to complain about having an AT-- It does have its advantages-- Considering this is like the first time i've really ever raced... Every other moment of driving I'm pretty content with having an AT.

I have some topspeed headers I haven't even opened-- Should I slap those on instead?-- The borla's sound mean, but give my exhaust a good amount of rasp.

actually the AT does have advantages... our gearing is our advantage.. maybe the Z i raced was a bad driver .. or maybe he wasnt.. he is not the only Z i have taken .. and plus i have taken quite a few 6mt G's even 05's and im talkin about off the line..

it is a driver's race. i raced a Z and he bogged since he deployed the clutch way too fast. guess he didnt know what hit him
